Description
The guest flag for Orkney is used by foreign vessels visiting the archipelago and is part of the maritime custom in the area. The flag is raised to show respect for the host region and contributes to the correct and clear use of the flag when calling at Orkney’s ports and waters.
The flag is made of 100% polyester and is suitable for use in maritime environments, with good durability and low weight. The size is 30 × 19 cm, which is the standard format for guest flags and is suitable for both sailboats and motorboats. The Orkney flag can be used alone or as part of a flag game with other regional or national flags, for example for longer voyages or visits to the North Atlantic. The flag is sold either individually or as part of regional packs, depending on the variant.
